FLYING PESTS Bees Hornets Wasps Yellow jackets Thoroughly dust nests and entrances and surrounding areas. To treat nests in wall voids, drill a hole in the area, dust entrance and surrounding areas. Wear protective clothing if necessary to avoid stings. You may also help avoid stings by treating wasp and bee nests in the evening when the insects are less active and are inside the nest. For best results, check nests within one or two days to ensure complete kill. Remove and destroy treated nests to prevent emergence of newly hatched insects, secondary pest problems, and possible staining from honey. If removal is not possible, retreat the nest, if necessary. PANTRY & STORED PRODUCT PESTS Beetles and Moths WOOD-INFESTING PESTS Termites and wood-infesting beetles Termite carton nests Above-ground termites and carpenter ants Carpenter ants Carpenter bees Clean area thoroughly, removing infested foodstuffs and all utensils, uncovered foodstuffs (or any with opened package), shelf paper and other objects.

Apply to voids and galleries in damaged wood, in spaces between wooden structural members, and between the sill plate and foundation where wood is vulnerable. For inaccessible areas, drill into the damaged wood or wall voids and then inject dust using a suitable directional injector. Note that drilling and treating may not give complete coverage of infested and vulnerable voids or galleries. Termite carton nests in building voids may be injected with a pointed injection tool at varying depths. For best results, remove carton nests material when possible. For control inside trees, utility poles, fencing and decking materials and similar structural members, drill to find the interior infested cavity and inject dust. Treat wall voids by access around electrical entrances, water lines or similar openings.
